190 cm - presumably he is still growing too.   But other than his name is he a good or good+ player?

That is the burning question Mono 6’3” in old terms fwd/back, great hands and team player and Adem Yze’s boy. Let’s hope he has a good run in the second half and earns a spot on the list. I love the romance of father/sons.

    Probably the best individual hour of play by any Melbourne player I've ever seen.

    I was there. He was brilliant. Shame we didn't win that match.

    Some of Jakovich's performances were pretty good too!!

    And the Wiz's second half v the filth at Doglands (I think) when he kicked about 9 goals.

    Immensely talented.

    Still to this day there isn't a Melbourne player I've come across that could absolutely drill a low flat 40m pass on either footy with ease.

    He was laconic as they come but God when he was on he could seriously player.

    If you ever get the chance ask David Neitz and Russell Robertson what they thought of trapper. Their eyes would light up when he had ball in hand.

    Lackadaisical maybe Dazzler? Laconic describes a person’s speech or writing style.

    Agree Dazzle, immensely talented and could have been anything. Unfortunately not professional off field. However that final against the crows where he absolutely left nothing out there and came off to an ovation absolutely exhausted I respect him for that. I was on the end of one of his 40 metre bullets. He laced me out in the Ponsford Stand end in that Troy Broadbridge tribute game against Essendon when he kicked that goal and kissed the armband. Clean hands too which was a great achievement as I was several cans deep by that stage.

    And if you can't ask Robbo directly, then have a read of page 184 of Between The Flags where Robbo describes leading to Ooze and Trapper.

    He’s had some big games for Caulfield. A 35 disposal game included. No idea what comes of it all, but would love to see us have a go with him considering he’s doing a lot more than Rosman did and they have similar height, running capacity.

    I know nothing about him but just had a little google and saw his last three games for Oakleigh Charges (round 3, 12 & 13) he has been named in the best players each time.

    Hopeful for a big second half of the year for the young fella.

    Trap was a rather unique player.  Very deceiving really.  Granted he probably waxed and waned some. Where some saw lethargy i saw comsidered composure.

    He had the very rare ability to amost make time slow around him. He seemed to play in space where there was none. Quite something to watch. An absolutely sublime kick.

    I used to come down from the country to watch the Dees play with my numerous years older sister who was living in Melbourne at the time.

    every time I watched him live, He’d have a ‘mere of a game and we would often yell out to not give the ball to him.

    perhaps I need to revise my view and assume he did pinpoint kicks and it was the leading player who was at fault? 🤷‍♂️😀

    Lazy defensively. Yes for that 5-10% of his career at the Dees when he was on point, he was amazing.  Other than that he definitely was never fit enough and didnt seemed to have the desire to become Trac, Viney or Clayton like in his pre season preparations.

    Oakleigh Chargers had a comfortable 33 point win against Eastern Ranges and Noah Yze had a productive game with 23 touches, 2 marks and 4 tackles. He’s getting it together at last after a slowish start. I believe that he’s a likely rookie draft pick and since he wasn’t considered for the state side in the national championships, I assume that we won’t be challenged by any of the other clubs.

    Still another year before he is drafted right?

    apaz he played on one of the likely top selections today (i presume josh smillie), and more than held his own?

    fwiw, yze was voted 2nd best for oakleigh today, and smillie was not named in the best

    stats here

    he's played for oakleigh 6 times and been in the 'best players' in the last 4 games he's played in for oakleigh

    I went to the Mornington races a few months after TJ was drafted and he was deep inside the betting ring. The kid was 17 years old. I started having misgivings about him then and there but he still turned out a very, very good player. Could he have been a great if he had his head in the “right” place all of the time? I’m not sure because that was TJ - a bit of a larrikan who could never be tamed.

    No - he’s eligible in the 2024 draft.

    Wait for the AFL knee jerk FS rule change.

    I played on him for 15 min when he was 15-16 and I was 17-18. He was comically good. I was psyched when we drafted him.

    The good thing to come out of that 15 min from my perspective was that my then coach never experimented with me in the midfield ever again.

    Anyone see how he went for casey?

    Played well. Not disssimilar to how Brown went last year. Stuck to his role, did the team thing. His running impressed me and so did his tackling. I would have liked to have seen him kick the sealer instead of pass it off to Billings, but showed great aweness. Went too hard at times to give away some free kicks, but seemed a little better than the Casey listed players debuts I remember. I can see us rooking him, but not national draft. And probably think a Fritch or Jefferson level of development. Would need a couple of years.

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      Melbourne and Hawthorn who face off against each other this week have more in common than having once almost merged and about to wear a blue jumper with a red v triangle and an embroidered picture of a bird on the front.  They also share the MCG as their main home ground, their supporters are associated with the leafy suburbs of Melbourne and in recent times, James Frawley graced the colours of both teams. Even more recently, both have bounced back from disastrous five game losing streaks to start off a season. Of course, the Hawks turned their bounce into a successful leap from the bottom of the ladder into a finals appearance, making it to the semifinals in 2024 and this year, they’re riding high in third place on the AFL table. The Demons are just three games into their 2025 bounce back, and are yet to climb their way out of the bottom four although they are sitting a game and percentage out of the top eight. However, with the current sportsbet odds of $3.90 to win this week’s encounter, it seems a forlorn hope that their upward progression will continue much longer.

    • REPORT: West Coast

      On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.
